As you know ... the original purpose of a shadow roll is to keep a horse from seeing ... guess what? ... shadows!

And what causes shadows to appear? Yes ... you got it ... the sun!

So ... there is a relationship between shadow rolls and the sun ... isn't there?

I know that you know that ... but apparently some people are so dumb that they can't make the simple connection between what shadow rolls are designed to prevent ... and what causes the problem which they're preventing.

Shadow rolls and sun ... yup ... and yet some people don't seem able to make the conection.
